Measuring Test Measurement Error: A General Approach
Test-based accountability as well as value-added assessments and much experimental and quasi-experimental research in education rely on achievement tests to measure student skills and knowledge. Yet we know little regarding fundamental properties of these tests, an important example being the extent of test measurement error and its implications for educational policy and practice. While test v...

متن کاملMeasuring response errors in censuses and surveys through reinterview data having a different measurement error variance
1. Introduction Reinterviews have been extensively used as a tool for estimating and reducing response errors in censuses and sample surveys. By response error it is meant any error occurring at the data collection stage for a variety of reasons. Errors may be due to the respondent, to the interviewer, or to both. Such errors can never be completely avoided and, therefore, in the practice of ce...
متن کاملA revisit to correlation analysis for distortion measurement error data
In this paper, we consider the estimation problem of a correlation coefficient between unobserved variables of interest. These unobservable variables are distorted in a multiplicative fashion by an observed confounding variable. Two estimators, themoment-based estimator and the direct plug-in estimator, are proposed, and we show their asymptotic normality. Moreover, the direct plug-in estimator...
